Lich King! (25man)

7/12: A great effort by everyone tonight lead to a long overdue LK kill! Bringing the total nights on LK to about three, we downed him our second time into P3. Good job everyone, and now onto heroics!

ICC Hard Modes (10Man) [11/12]

5/8: Time for a long overdue update. Sindragosa heroic downed in two attempts as soon as the buff reached 15%. While it would have been nice to get her before the buff, due to lack of sign ups and volcanoes erupting it wasn't meant to be. The next week we went through doing the meta achievements needed for the drakes. The dreaded Sindragosa achievement didn't live up to its name at all, with it being a one shot. Good work everyone and we hope to get a few more people their drakes over the coming weeks (excluding Lazy of course).

ICC Hard Modes (10Man) [9/12]

3/25: Blood Prince Council down. God, what an annoying fight.. I feel like I'm going to see a news story about crazy people on new years eve, punching the midnight ball trying to knock it back up. Just make sure you blame it on the al al al al alcohol.
3/22: Heroic Professor Putricide down! After only one night of attempts too. Great work everyone, this was a really intense fight. Glad we got it down before the patch and the 10% buff...even if the WoW gods did try to stop us by nuking Aks's graphics card!
3/17: Valithria Dreamwalker up? Good job heals, glad to see you guys actually doing something for the raid for once.
3/16: Blood queen down! ... What?
3/14: Just a quick update on how heroic 10 mans are going. First wing is down and wow is Saurfang a crazy fight. I would put him almost up there with heroic Firefighter. He would just not die. I think i speak for all involved when i say I could go the rest of my wow days without doing that again and be happy.

Also the first two bosses in heroic plague wing are down. Compared to the Saurfang fight these two were a walk in the park especially Rotface. Attempts on the Professor to come...

Professor Putricide (25man)

3/06: After weeks of agonizing 1-2% attempts (including one with 8000 hp left on our second or or third week of attempts), demoralizing wipes and canceled raid nights due to lack of raiders SJ DOWNS PUTRICIDE (25 man).

We did it with the 5% raid buff active, and the 5% increased damage helped make up for our slight undergearing. If we had pushed forward and killed some of the easier bosses first for the free loot, we could have easily done it without the buff as execution was very solid - the only thing that got in the way was time and fatigue.
Great work everyone, now to push through to the Lich King.

A whole write up and I never used "good news everybody!" ... dammit.

The Lich King (10man)

2/27: After 3 solid nights of attempts SJ downs the Lich King (10)!
This has to be one of the hardest 10 man (normal) encounters to date, not only due to the stupidly high role of RNG, but the 100% focus needed by everyone to not slip up and wipe the raid. As if we didnt have enough reason to hate RNG the loot was 2x Halion, Staff of Forgotten Love... Thanks.
Huge congratulations to everyone on the kill!

Trial of the Grand Crusader (25man and 10man)

12/6: Grats guys for the insane one shot on Faction Champs tonight. Great work by everyone in raid.
11/21: Two in one night! Special thanks to the healers for really good heals on beasts, allowing us to one shot it after a few weeks off.
Good recovery from that assclown pally just standing in the flames and wiping us on the second attempt on Jaraxxus... you know who you are with your stupid ascii name! So glad these posts are made under the name Audr.

Also grats to the 10man group on the "A Tribute to Insanity" about 3 weeks ago... Wasn't even going to post it as we all know 10man is just /faceroll.

Algalon the Observer (10man)

9/28: Observe this! After 5 hours and 30 minutes (6 weeks) of wiping SJ saves Azeroth! Good work to everyone who helped out over the past weeks, Algalon (10man) has been one of the more challenging and enjoyable encounters to date. Grats to Kaenan for winning the Reply Code and Meteorite Crystal. A shame it wasn't a MH or OH for you, as you appeared to not have any during the successful attempt. Also grats to Hanford for Dark Matter!

Hard Modes (25man) [3/9]

9/27: Congratulations to everyone for our 3rd 25man hard mode kill! Very impressive focus and coordination by everyone. Next up, sigil farming.
Also good job on Orbit-uary.

Hard Modes (10Man) [9/9]

9/21: After a few weeks of ignoring Yogg, SJ decided to pay the old guy a visit along with one of our friends, Thorim.
Just like any good social gathering things got a little out of control, someone died and there was lightning. Grats to everyone on the drakes, and look forward to
wiping a few times for "Alone in the darkness".

Coliseum Hard (10man) [5/5]

9/15: With 40 attempts left SJ killed Anub'arak heroic (10 man). Grats to Voxtrot on the tribute loot mace. Oh and thanks for solo healing Icehowl.
Next week, A Tribute to Mad Skill
